Hi,
after having applyed a 2 lines patch to resolve bug LP#260314 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/260314/comments/8), my GPM works normally. But sometimes, without any reason or manual intervention from me, another daemon is started, as root.

I can see this because a second g-p-m notification icon appears in the systray, and my backlight is resetted to 100% (I've configured it to 40% in my GPM preferences). If I sudo kill the root gpm, my session does not seem to be affected (nothing crashes, nothing changes). Some times later (say, 10 to 30 minutes), another daemons starts again as root, and same player shoots again (sudo kill).
